Today SuSE listed on their web site rpms needed to get the install to work. I downloaded directly from them and installed
worked!
URL: http://suse.com/en/support/download/LinuKS/i386/update_for_7_1/base.html
I installed the "Required packages" and it is working. I am now going to install the others to upgrade other apps.

OK try this too.
try moving your .kde2 directory in your home directory to something else. KDE2 will create a new one when you start kde2.
You will lose most of your customizations
backgrounds, etc. but this might work.
Let me know CD

Well, unfortunately that didn't work. I get the same error. Although, I noticed the ksocket- and kde-
recreated. Any other ideas?

Do this...
check in your /tmp directory for
directories:
mcop-<username> ksocket-<username> kde-<username>
where username is your login id.
If those exist, move them to
something like
dirname.backup or whatever. Or just delete them. They get created when you start KDE2.
Then try starting KDE2.1.1
Apparently KDE2 leaves those
and
doesn't clean them up. Once you move
delete
them, kde2.1.1 will automatically
create new ones.
Write back if you have any
questions...

I get an error message when trying to start up
KDE
after upgrading to 2.1.1. I'm running SuSE 7.1 and was wondering if anyone else has experienced this. Installing the RPMs goes fine. Then I reboot
hoping
to load the new KDE but instead the GUI starts to load then I get
dropped
into a text logon prompt. If I type "startx" I get the following message
box:
"error setting up inter-process communication
for
KDE. could not read network connection
/root/.DCOPserver_[host name]_:0 check that dcopserver is running!"
If I go back to the text shell and
dcopserver by typing "dcopserver" it says "$DISPLAY not set". I have tried the bug database at kde.org but all
I
have found are people with the same problem who seem to fix it on
their
own and there are no solutions listed. Any other SuSe users have this
why does suse does not do the same for their
other versions like 7.0, 6.4, etc etc
